An advance group of TechnoKats (eight students, a handful of mentors) is on the way from Kokomo to St. Louis right now. The trailer full of pit paraphernalia started out very early today and should have gotten there a few hours ago. The rest of the team will be leaving tomorrow morning, to arrive a bit before noon.

My old team (830) should be arriving in st Louis in a few hours. Good Luck Rat Pack.

Re: Anybody left yet?
 

Well, it seems like all the St. Louis teams are on the move. PantherTech left early this morning and are now in St. Louis, I'm not sure why they(I can't go because of class :() left so early. Best of luck to all you teams at St. Louis!! :D

Re: Anybody left yet?
 

A few 587 members who don't like driving/waking up really early in the morning are leaving today. Very early tomorrow, the core build team, programmers, and drivers are heading up to be there by the time the pits open. Later tomorrow, the rest of the team (PR, animation, etc) is leaving to arrive late afternoon.

We can't wait, were getting here early so we can swim in the pool and contemplate game strategy...

Team 1250 is leaving at 7:45 pm for St. Louis. All night bus ride and then showing up at the arena right off of it. It should be interesting.

Re: Anybody left yet?
 

We leave tomorrow at 0700, and hope to get to Trenton by the time the pits open :).

Re: Anybody left yet?
 

172 is carpooling down to Manchester, leaving 6:30 in the morning.

Re: Anybody left yet?
 

Just arrived in Manchester, teachers tried to put us in a really sketchy motel (Manchester Inn for anyone interested).... and that didn't go over too well. Now in the Radisson across from the Arena! Pumped for tomorrow!

Re: Anybody left yet?
 

Relaxing till the fifteenth, our first regional.

Re: Anybody left yet?
 

I'm about to leave for VCU in about 30 min. Tomorrow i get to see the beast again!!(and breathe in the amazing atmosphere of FIRST!)

Re: Anybody left yet?
 

EVDO? What provider? I could use my razr with Verizon to do that, but I'd have to seem edit it and I'd probably get caught (it's $60 a month and against the TOS to use it without a data plan). I use 1x right now, and it's slower than...something that's really slow (think 60-70Kbps...yuck).

I don't feel like getting my service terminated. But it is nice to have truly wireless internet!

(the saddest part about this post is that I actually understood every bit of your post...wow, I think I'm a nerd)
